:: Wow, it's strange, Boomer seems kind of vague on the whole evac thing. But I can't quite figure it out. Not sure if it's the radiation, or the anti-radiation pills, either way, my head isn't thinking as clearly as it should. Thankfully there are a good supply of the pills, they don't seem to be running out as fast as I thought with two of us. Boomer sure is looking fine. Damn it! Gotta stop thinking like that. Chief will kick my ASS! ::

Helo isn't thinking clearly because the blood is running away from his brain, so to speak.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Plus, those radiation pills? Mentos.

The solution to "The Caprica Problem" is the Freshmaker?

Canadians really DO have it all!

That explains why Boomer is wanting to suck face so much (sorry Chief, I resisted as long as possible. But it was futile. She's HOT!)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

So are we trying to pass this check or not? I'm hearing arguements both ways, but not a lot of effort to actually try and pass it based on the number of cards played so far.

The actual details come down to the order of play. Next up is Starbuck, then me, then you. You'll know if it's worth throwing in cards by the time your turn rolls around.

I thought most wanted to fail the check.

BSG

Probably, yes. But the order of card play has to be adhered to because the person playing first is at a disadvantage, and the person playing last at an advantage. That has to be stuck to always or not at all. Sticking to the order also prevents card takebacks.

Of course the Pradmiral is all for "confirming" his humanity - at the expense of the morale of the fleet.

Especially when the "person" doing the confirmation is beneath his thumb, and very, very close to him.

At least in construction.

My advice: spend cards, prevent the loss of morale. I'm not interested in any lies coming out of the military today.
